Hi Peter,
Thanks for the summary. That sort of stuff is gold for us who are
newbies with some of these utilities. But I wanted to point out one
thing you don't have right yet. You wrote:
Mapnik is the new kid on the block, its used for open street map among
other things. It does much of what mapserver does, but _mapnik has
anti-aliasing_, hence does nice raster renders. The API is pretty much all
MapServer does too. Just use the AGG driver in the OUTPUTFORMAT object
in the mapfile to get nice-looking antialiasing over the entire map.
